Reborn as a paranoid regent's sweetheart

Chapter 272 Thief
It seems to be called... Leng Rong!
Yes, that is cold!

The guard slapped his head, looking for Leng Rong to serve the princess is definitely better than theirs!

After the shift, he will go and talk to the chief guard about it!
Oops, he's such a smart guy.

For dinner, Shen Xi prepared pork liver porridge with vegetables. Pork liver can replenish blood and improve eyesight. Eating more is good for the body.

It's just that Shen Xi couldn't eat it when she saw the black and blue shape, but she really knew that this was not the time for her to be picky.

Emperor Wen Hui has been sending people to search for her whereabouts. If these guards move too much, they will definitely attract their attention. Therefore, it is best for her to do nothing at this time and obediently obey their arrangements.

Don't bother them any more.

Shen Xi suppressed his nausea and ate the food, then told himself over and over again that he must not burden them again.

All of these things are delicious, and these things are delicious.

She knew exactly what Xiao Che was going to do this time, and all the fighting was just for the throne.

Then she naturally can't drag him down.

At night, when the cold wind blew past, Shen Xiting felt a little scared.

In fact, there is nothing to be afraid of, as long as she squeaks, people outside will rush in, but sometimes many problems cannot be solved by her self-comfort.

The room was really too quiet, although the brazier was still burning, and although Mrs. Tang was also hot, her heart felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar.

She really misses Xiao Che...

What is he doing now?Are you also thinking about each other like her?
Shen Xi found a hairpin from under the pillow, which was given to her by Xiao Che who was about to carve it.

The hairpin was a little rough at first, but it has become extremely smooth after being touched by her in a few days.

Looking at the hairpin, Shen Xi couldn't help laughing.

If Xiao Che knew that he had made the hairpin so round... I don't know how he would feel.

Just thinking about Xiao Che's surprised expression, Shen Xi suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, the sound was very soft and slow, and they were getting closer...

This is not Xiao Che!
Shen Xi's heart skipped a beat in an instant, and countless possibilities flooded into her mind in an instant.

who is it……

Could it be the guards?

No... Impossible, they are Xiao Che's people, how could they come in without incident?
Wait, what if they are spies?
Shen Xi broke out in a cold sweat.

Or... Emperor Wen Hui already knew she was here, so he sent someone to find her.

The hand holding the hairpin tightened even more, if that person opened her curtain...

The sword Xiao Che gave her was still on the side, for safety, she bought a dagger for self-defense.

Breathing slowly, he slowly grabbed the dagger into his hand.

As long as that person dared to lift the curtain, the dagger in her hand would stab him without hesitation.

The footsteps were getting closer, but they stopped halfway, turned around and walked elsewhere.

Shen Xi breathed a sigh of relief, but the tension did not disappear in the slightest.

Quietly hid the dagger in his bosom, trying to breathe evenly.

It seems that the purpose of that person is not himself.

Could it be...a thief?
Listening to his sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets, Shen Xi became more and more sure of her thoughts.

Just the guards outside?Where did they all go? ?Were they all unprepared for such a big person appearing in her room? ? ?

Or is this also part of Xiao Che's plan? ?

Taking two deep breaths, Shen Xi still decided to pretend to be asleep first, not knowing the strength of the person who came, it would be easy to get himself involved if he tried rashly.

After an unknown amount of time, the footsteps started coming towards her again.

Shen Xi's heart suddenly rose again.

The footsteps stopped about three feet away from her bed, and the dagger in Shen Xi's hand was out of its sheath.

As long as he dares...

After the sound of footsteps paused, he took another tentative step forward.

Seeing that there was no movement inside the bed, he boldly stretched out his hand and lifted the bed curtain.

At the same time, Shen Xi suddenly remembered what Xiao Che said to her before, when there is a huge disparity in power, if you are not sure that you can defeat a person, don't draw your sword easily.

Otherwise... the sword in your hand is likely to become a sharp weapon to kill yourself.

This person must be able to avoid so many guards, he must have some kung fu...

Shen Xi decided to stand still for now.

Fortunately, I was used to pretending to be dizzy in my previous life, so I won't be easily discovered by him now.

After the man lifted the curtain and looked at it for a long time, he finally laughed softly: "Oh, so she is still a little beauty."

Obviously this person didn't know Shen Xi, or because the night was dark, he didn't look carefully.

"Live here in the middle of the night, little beauty, you are not the concubine who escaped from the rich family, are you..."

The man was still faintly excited when he spoke.

Shen Xi cursed in her heart: You pervert!As perverted as Emperor Wen Hui!You are the concubine, and your whole family is concubine! !

"No, the outer room, it should be the outer room. How could the escaped concubine be treated so well?"

Your grandma in the outer room, I am your mother!

It's a pity that he didn't know what Shen Xi was thinking, but couldn't help rubbing his hands: "It just so happens that I haven't touched a woman for a few days, and you sent this to my door..."

After all, without even taking off his clothes, he pounced on him like a starving ghost.

Maybe he was dazzled by the beauty, or maybe he was too confident in his own skills, as soon as he threw himself on Shen Xi, he felt a sharp pain in his chest and abdomen.

It was Shen Xi's dagger that was inserted into his body.

Seeing that he was stabbed by herself, Shen Xi put more force in her hand.

Warm blood flowed from the blade to Shen Xi's hand, and Shen Xi stared at the person who came, whose face was still somewhat familiar.

"Oh it's you!"

Taking advantage of his lack of strength to resist, Shen Xi pushed him away. The night was very cold, but at this moment her nerves were tense, and she didn't feel the slightest bit of coolness at all.

"You...you know me..."

The man clutched his wound, sweating from the pain.

"Ah."

Shen Xi sneered, and did not answer his question directly: "This dagger was given to me by my husband, and it is poisonous."

Afterwards, she lowered her head, her eyes were colder than the cold wind blowing outside: "And this poison, only my husband has the antidote."

She is too familiar with this person.

In the first life, she saw this man in the palace.

He is a capable general under Emperor Wen Hui, and he is good at doing light work, but he is not bad at being tall, but there is a shortcoming.

He likes to steal things, and is very close to beauty, and has no resistance to beauty.

And these two shortcomings are estimated to be irreversible in this life.

Shen Xishang remembered that in the first life, this man fell in love with Emperor Wen Hui's younger sister, that Princess Shuxian who was a little out of her mind, and sneaked into her palace that night to watch her take a bath.

After this matter was discovered, Emperor Wen Hui didn't mind it, but just punished him with a few sentences, and then exposed the matter.

It is enough to show the importance of this person in Emperor Wen Hui's heart.

But this person usually doesn't come to the palace very often, only when he encounters important things will he be called by Emperor Wen Hui.
